New Year's Resolution - To POST...

Wow, I have been remiss on posting (but I am not sure if anyone is out there).

OK, so now I am inspired by Julie & Julia it was a fun movie about two amazing women.
Similarity ends there....
I am not going to blog through a cookbook
But I do have a goal, to tell you about all the Zachary Bear designs over the next year.

OK, first problem determining how many designs there are, I just counted 288 titles but I think that Lori has created some new art that did not get a title header. So the goal is 288 titles in 365 days. Let's change that already and say by the end of 2010. We are already into the eleventh day so make that 288 titles in 354 days.

I also want to tell you about the cool kaleidoscopes that Lisa has been making so there may be more than one post a day depending how busy the store gets. This store/studio is never static and Lori as an artist is never still so I will also be telling you about the dogs she has been drawing for greeting cards. We make cards in our studio and we license the artwork to neat web site in California called Greeting Card Universe. They sell you bulk cards or send them out to individuals for you.

As we travel through the designs in the Zachary Bear® collection you will learn more about the four of us that make up the Zachary Bear® Store and Studio.

I am Ed, the computer guy at ZB. (I'll use ZB as a way of shortening the Zachary Bear® Store and Studio.) I started doing desktop publishing in 1988 and needed a copier. At that time I saw a color copier and dreamed of the possibilities of providing a link between art and technology. In most cases the tech people don't understand the artists and at the time I started most artists didn't understand technology. I considered that link to be a segue or a transition between art and technology. I called my company Segway (long before the famous scooter) and went looking for artists. Bill Aman came to have Lori's artwork reproduced and the rest is history... enough back story.
